Xu Xiuzhen's pupils trembled, and her heart suddenly clenched.
What did Zhou Chunhua mean by that?
Could it be... impossible!
Nobody knows about what happened back then!
That's right! Zhou Chunhua didn't know at the time, so how could she possibly know after all these years!
Thinking of this, Xu Xiuzhen patted her chest.
Stay calm! Don't scare yourself.
Right now, the more important thing is to achieve the purpose of this trip.
What if Zhou Chunhua really cured that money-losing thing...?
No! Absolutely not!
Once she calmed down a bit, Xu Xiuzhen noticed that the flashes from the cameras around her were clicking incessantly.
Those on the outer circle who were watching the spectacle were pointing at her and whispering among themselves.
Just as Xu Xiuzhen was racking her brains trying to figure out how to achieve her goal, a voice asked, "Auntie, is what she said true?"
Xu Xiuzhen quickly lowered her head, pretending to wipe away her tears, and then said in a sobbing voice, "You can't listen to her nonsense! I... I have absolutely no connection with her now, why would I bother to put her in a mental hospital!"
"Why?" Zhou Chunhua interrupted directly, "Xu Xiuzhen, there's an old saying, 'If you don't want people to know, don't do it in the first place.' Do you think what you did to Nini back then is just a passing fad?"
I'm telling you, don't even think about it! You've all conspired to ruin my daughter's life! I will personally send you all to prison!
Zhou Chunhua's words were like water splashed into a hot oil pan, instantly exploding into a frenzy.
"Ms. Zhou, what do you mean by that?"
"Nini's mother, are you saying that your daughter Nini's abduction was related to her grandmother, Aunt Xu?"
"Ms. Zhou, do you have sufficient evidence to support what you just said?"
"Ms. Zhou, please tell us the truth!"
"That's right! As social media, we have an obligation to tell the public the truth!"
"..."
Those who were close to Zhou Chunhua quickly surrounded her, leaving no room for her to move.
Those who were far from Zhou Chunhua, seeing that they couldn't squeeze in, simply turned around and surrounded Xu Xiuzhen.
"Aunt Xu, is everything Ms. Zhou said true? Is your granddaughter Nini's abduction really related to you?"
"Yes! Aunt Xu, when Nini was abducted, were you really involved?"
"Aunt Xu, netizens are saying that Nini was sold to human traffickers by you, her grandma who favors boys over girls. Is that true?"
"..."
However, while everyone's attention was focused on Xu Xiuzhen's face, no one noticed that the veins on Xu Xiuzhen's hands were bulging.
Faced with a barrage of questions, Xu Xiuzhen, her face ashen, retorted, "That's utter nonsense! She, she, she..."
Xu Xiuzhen pointed at her, trembling, and said, "She...she's just spewing nonsense! Making things up out of thin air! I...I'm Nini's own grandmother! How could I possibly sell my own granddaughter!"
Zhou Chunhua! You, I, I'm telling you! If you can't produce evidence today, I, I... I'm going to sue you for defamation and hold you accountable!
At this point, everyone's attention turned to Zhou Chunhua again.
Before anyone knew it, someone had started a live stream on the spot.
I heard them saying repeatedly from the side, "Family members in the live stream, what are your thoughts on this? Feel free to share your opinions in the comments section."
Meanwhile, the live stream room was bustling with activity.
This kind of patriarchal grandmother selling her granddaughter is not surprising at all. In my hometown, it's common for newborn girls to be abandoned on the mountains.
【That's right! I've heard that in some remote areas, there are "infant spirit towers." They claim to be places to commemorate dead babies, but they're actually just places where baby girls are abandoned!】
[That old woman is awful! She's a woman herself, so why does she look down on girls?!]
While most people were filled with righteous indignation, some held different views.
[Don't be swayed by this narrative! If the child's mother had evidence, she would have sued them long ago. The fact that things have come to this point proves what? It means the child's mother has absolutely no evidence!]
[What evidence do you need? Don't you know what Nini's mother went through to find Nini? Stop pretending to be a saint! You're even siding with that despicable old woman! Be careful you don't suffer retribution and be childless!]
[...]
In the blink of an eye, the live stream chat room was in an uproar.
Xu Xiuzhen pointed at Zhou Chunhua and demanded, "Where's the evidence? Produce the evidence! I've been tolerating you for Nini's sake, but you're ungrateful and even try to frame me! Let me tell you, if you can't produce evidence today, I, I, I'm not done with you!"
As the voices of doubt from those around her grew louder, Xu Xiuzhen's confidence grew stronger, and her chin unconsciously rose higher and higher.
However, when she saw Zhou Chunhua's fearless face, she felt a little uneasy.
Could it be that... Zhou Chunhua really has something in her possession?
If that's really the case...
Xu Xiuzhen's forehead was covered in cold sweat, which she didn't realize was increasing.
impossible!
The next second, she rejected the idea.
After all, that happened so many years ago. Back then, it wasn't like now, with security cameras everywhere.
Besides, she wasn't involved in that incident back then!
Moreover, Zhou Chunhua loved that short-lived thing so much that if she really had evidence, how could she not settle accounts with her?
Yes, yes, yes! No, definitely not, and absolutely impossible!
After calming herself down, Xu Xiuzhen pretended to wipe away tears, but she was actually wiping away the beads of sweat on her forehead.
However, when she looked up, thinking she had the victory in her grasp, she saw Zhou Chunhua engrossed in her phone.
The heart that had just landed steadily instantly choked up again in its throat.
Just then, Zhou Chunhua held up her phone.
"This is a surveillance video I found."
What Zhou Chunhua took out was the very same piece of paper she had back then.
Everyone craned their necks, watching in complete silence until the very end, all looking utterly bewildered.
Only Xu Xiuzhen was covered in cold sweat.
It's only because we wear thick clothes in winter that the sweat-soaked clothes are so obvious.
Xu Xiuzhen's heart rate was irregular at this moment.
Her eyes were filled with terror, and a chill ran through her body.
She truly hadn't expected that Zhou Chunhua had already investigated to this extent!
Let her investigate further...
No! We can't let her mess around like this anymore!
Just then, someone suddenly asked, "Ms. Zhou, this video doesn't prove that it's related to Aunt Xu!"
"Really?" Zhou Chunhua looked at Xu Xiuzhen: "Xu Xiuzhen, you tell everyone, who is that person in the video? And what is your relationship with him?"
